Following Saturday’s assassination attempt at Donald Trump, Conor McGregor has voiced his support for the 45th President of the United States. This in turn seems to have ignited patriotism in former world champion from Cuba, Yordenis Ugas! Months ahead of presidential elections in the States, Donald Trump was giving a speech in a rally in Pennsylvania.

The speech was then abruptly interrupted as Trump suddenly ducked down, which later turned out to be because of a bullet piercing his right ear. As Secret Service agents surrounded him, the former president was escorted to his SUV and rushed to a local hospital for further treatment before being flown to his residence in New Jersey.

Later reports revealed a 20-year-old man named Thomas Matthew Crooks was the shooter involved—who has been shot and killed by the Secret Service. During the shooting, one man sadly lost his life, while two other attendees were seriously injured. Trump’s team also revealed that the presidential candidate is now doing better.

Since the incident, current president Joe Biden and several public figures, including Melania Trump, have condemned the shooting while questioning how such a thing was allowed to happen in the first place. Meanwhile, former UFC champion Conor McGregor took to X today, expressing his thoughts about the horrific incident in Pennsylvania.

“A 78 year old multiple billionaire he should be on a yacht on the med touring golf courses. But he is not. He is in Pennsylvania spitting out bullets! Running for the love of his country! God speed Donald! God bless the United States”, Conor McGregor wrote. Soon afterwards, Yordenis Ugas responded to the tweet, writing, “God Bless America”.

Interestingly, the outrage isn’t just contained to America, as world leaders from across the globe voice their support for the 45th president.

World joins Donald Trump in support

After the news of the shocking incident spread like wildfire over the blue planet, Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama turned to X to say Trump’s attempted assassination was “distressing”, not to mention, the sole death resulting from the incident. “This is a tragedy for the democratic world,” Rama added.

President Javier Milei of Argentina put the blame on “international left”, while branding the incident a “cowardly assassination attempt”. On the other side of the world, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese of Australia described the shooting as “concerning and confronting” while sharing his relief that Trump had come out of it relatively unscathed.

As for America’s neighbor Canada, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau suggested he was “sickened” by the cowardly assassination attempt. Adding, “It cannot be overstated — political violence is never acceptable.” These were just a few examples of how people from across the globe have said in support of Trump and the horrific incident that shook the super power.

The shooting did not just affect the more politically inclined among the masses, it seems to have rooted itself in the very fabric of sentiments that have bubbled up after Trump’s near brush with death. Do you have anything you like to get off your chest after this tragedy?
